Okay, I am over my little funk. I am so glad, because it just wasn’t me. Spring is in the air and it was a beautiful
day yesterday and again today. I have
always been counting my blessings and I finding more every day.
I have three books published, although I really need to
get moving on marketing. I know that I
have chosen a really small audience, but I really feel that the books will
touch children, the way traditional Bible stories haven’t quite been able to
do.
Book four, I have promised myself to get to the publisher
by the end of this weekend and then there will be a full set of four, when it
comes out.
Those of you who have seen snippets on Twitter and
Facebook probably know, but to summarize:
Each book has six stories. Books
one and three are from the Old Testament and books two and four are from the
New Testament. So, all in all (if you
are counting), there are 24 stories (12 Old Testament and 12 New Testament).
So far, I have not needed to repeat an animal! Mind you, there are a couple of different
birds (a dove and a raven) and kind of two goats (one referred to as just goat
and one a ram), but the rest are all totally unique.
I have decided to leave it at four books, although I will
plan out two more and just see what the demand is. I would like to see children enjoy them and
understand the Bible stories they represent, better than children have in the
past. I know several mothers personally,
who read them to their kids and the kids just love them.
Here is my little pitch.
The first three are available on the Amazon sites, notably amazon.com
and amazon.ca,
but also .co.uk, .fr, .de, .jp and several other non-Amazon sites. Please purchase the books and read them to
your little ones. You and the little
ones will enjoy the stories, I promise!
